Does anyone here use the Bulldog Lite 1.75mm extruder with an E3Dv6 or any other hot end? Does the Bulldog mount directly onto the standard Prusa i3v X-Carriage? How well does it work? I'm replacing...

Yeah? Where are you going?
I guess I better be careful this next week.

Printbus, you are a goddamn genius.

I fixed the pin conflicts which Colin had accidentally left (as did I when I modified the code) and it works like a charm. One click every 5 or so seconds...

You're right. My nozzle heater is connected to D10. I had them confused. My D08 has melted down due to either overcurrenting or loose wires (probably the latter). I'm connected to D09 as a...

My heater cartridge is connected to D08. I just talked to my father (an electrician) and he said that there's an issue with whatever switches it on and off. When I turn the bed off in Pronterface,...

Are you sure that's correct? I configured mine according to the Makerfarm site which says:

I attempted to fix it myself by editing some code in the pins.h file. I found the motherboard 33 pin setup and changed the bed to 9. When I hooked everything up, uploading the firmware, and ran it...

Just received my heat bed relay. I connected one wire of the bed to J2 and ground from my PSU to J2. I connected the other wire to the OUT terminal on J1 and 12v to the IN on J1. My bed still isn't...

What 3D printer do you currently use?

I currently use a MakerFarm Prusa i3v.

Yeah, it's the 8-inch i3v.

I've taken some more images with a better camera, though it still had trouble focusing because of how close I had to be. I tried to avoid disconnecting all the motors,...

Thanks for the plethora of information printbus, it's been a real help!

If I were to stick with the terminal block, how can I eliminate this issue from ever happening again? Would it even be worth...

printbus,

I understand. My board is currently running on type 99, I think. Will switching to 33 affect anything else or is it even possible to change specifically the pin for the heat bed? I just...

Thanks for all of your suggestions, guys. It really shines some light on this crappy situation. I'm actually quite lucky I didn't burn my house down when this happened, as my printer is located in my...

I built the printer myself, but I know for a fact that I tightened all the screws down very much. I've broken screws in the same type of connector in the past due an issue of over tightening in the...

If you've checked my recent posts, I've been having trouble with filament recently. I finally fixed the issue and printed off some quadcopter pieces. I noticed the next morning that they had layer...

Using this method, I think I found why the hot end keeps jamming. When I ran it and the filament makes the clicking noise I get every time it stops working, I ran a guitar string through it and...

I printed the first 1/2 of the spool just fine. It was only after I used the Chinese rebrand that I started experiencing these issues. If I'm remembering correctly, the MakerFarm white that I have...

If you saw my latest thread a few weeks ago, you'll know that I purchased a spool of mystery filament from MakerGeeks and received a lime green ABS. I think this was the worst thing I've ever done...

Now that I've gotten your attention, I seriously do think I lazily constructed a dual extruder mount for the i3v. I haven't tested it myself because I don't own two E3Dv6 Bowdens (I'd like to,...

Why not just get an E3Dv6 and some extra nozzles? One hot end for all nozzles, and it goes from 0.25 - 0.80.

Thanks for the replies, everyone.

I finally fixed it by taking the hot end off the extruder block, holding it with a pair of pliers, heating it up to ABS printing temp, and using an allen key to...

My extruder will not, under any circumstances, extrude filament. I've tried adjusting to different tensions, spun the spool to give it more available filament, and waited to make sure everything at...

A while back, I made a post about a purchase I had made on MakerGeeks' website. It also informed other members here that they were (and might still be) having a $20 package where you got a random...

XCopter, I think the first step to bridging would be setting up a print cooling fan. Clough42 has done a 200mm bridging in one of his YouTube videos, which included a print cooling fan...

Great guide! I was already looking into setting up OctoPi and creating a guide, but you've accomplished more than I would have, especially with the static IP and forwarded ports to use the webcam...
